To quote the people wanting Imus fire... "How do you know [they] mean it in that context?"
Because they're refering to other men.

If you're comparing that to imus, then I would have had to say something along the lines of "when they use the N-word in rap songs theyre refeing to men in a JOKING manner," for what you just posted to make sense - Seeing as people attacking Imus were questioning whether the context of his statement was infact a joke or was it a serious racial attack. They weren't questioning the gender of the people he was referring to.
